Looks like 3 Inches of Blood and Saviours are playing the Knitting Factory a few week before this show rolls thru, also on a weeknight. If I make it out for one of em it'll probably be this show though, wanna see Kylesa. Bison BC are kinda in that same The Sword territory though, they've got the right idea, some of the right riffs, but no vibe and boring songs, at least on the record. Some Doomriders and Red Fang would be peachy, bummer, Black Math Horseman is some jams though.

Kylesa is a totally badass band who has evolved their sound into something which is almost a perfect mix of Baroness-esque progressive sludge / doom metal with a little bit of punk just for some extra flavor. Really good stuff. They are incredible live. If you haven't seen them yet, then you owe it to yourself to check them out. If that ain't possible, then at least buy yourself a copy of Static Tensions (their latest and best album yet).

If your show date also happens to include Bison B.C., then you are one lucky bastard, and you're crazy if you don't go. They are Canada's answer to High on Fire, and they rock balls as well.
